Chat, check-in, and hang out

Good news, @Changing4Best! I couldn't chat either since everyone seemed to talk at once and it stressed me out. I'm having trouble typing now since I fell and pulled a hamstring, broke a toe, broke a finger and detached a tendon. Yikes I'm graceful.
 
ErrrMrrrrGrrrr >.< LMFAO

So my kid is walking around singing racist Disney songs.

Since he’s about 1/4 indian (mostly Blackfoot from his dad’s side, gma is full blooded; lil bit of Lakota Sioux et al on mine) his faaaaaaaavorite is “What made the reeeeeed man red?” from Peter Pan.

It’s. Now. Stuck. In. My. Head.

I’m not sure if it’s the catchiness of it, that he keeps singing them... so much as when people tell him to STOP ... He gets all fake offended about that person attempting to oppress his people! Trying to deny him his cultural heritage?!? How dare they! (And since this is hippy-ville, people fall over themselves apologizing. <rolleyes> ) Snort. He’s been a bit vague as to “which” people he’s referencing in his Monty Python Esque “You saw him oppressing me! Help! Help! I’m being oppressed!” rants. The Blackfoot/Sioux/Choctaw/etc.? Or the ‘Well that’s mighty white of you!” folk who wrote those songs?

Teenagers! <facepalm>

((He also supports the South, in the War Of Northern Aggression, when we’re on the west coast... but is a True Blue! Yankee Boy in Civil War anything down South. I say again... Teenagers! <facepalm> Contrary for the sake of being contrary. ))

Seriously, though... the song is stuck. in. my. head.
 
Been a bad week. Triggered by many things. Thoughts, other people, smells, sounds. Makes me realize that letting my guard down isn’t an option. I start feeling well and think hmmm maybe I don’t have PTSD. Then my brain says...ummmm....here’s a reminder.
But, as I laid awake last night thinking of my younger self, I am safe now. So, back to grounding and another day ?

Hiya, sorry you've had a rough week. I hope you feel better soon. ?
 
I can’t remember if you eat your chickens, @DharmaGirl?

We had a solid farm-rule that you don’t eat anything you name, and I know you name a lot of your chicks... but I know not everyone follows that rule... and can’t remember if you have pullet/cockerel flocks on the homestead for fryers.
